The Gophers are tracking in-state talent Johnny Woodard.

According to Rivals.com, assistant coach Vince Taylor will travel to Duluth Wednesday to watch the 6-4 shooting guard (class of 2012).

Woodard has excelled on the AAU scene with the Net Gain Sports program. He has scholarship offers from UW-Milwaukee and UW-Green Bay but other schools, such as Minnesota, have recently expressed interest in the prospect.

Here are some video highlights of Woodard from earlier this season. He's No. 24.
